State Representatives

Our State Representatives

The Minnesota Legislature consists of two houses: the Senate and the House of Representatives. Senators are elected from 67 single-member districts. Representatives are elected from 134 single-member districts formed by dividing the 67 senate districts in half and are labeled as district ‘A’ or ‘B.’

​

This page is a resource for student leaders, organizers, and advocates. We’ve consolidated information on all of the Minnesota Representatives that represent our universities so students have one place where they can find their contact information.

If you’re living outside of the district where your university is, you can confirm who your representative is by clicking the button below.

Please note that Legislative Assistants change yearly, and will be updated before the start of each legislative session.
